I have been expanding my fishing tackle and techniques, and lately have been getting into pulling plugs. I mainly fish Tadpollys, and sometimes Wiggle Warts and Hot Shots. I take all the trebles off and usually run a bead swivel conected to a 3/0 Gamakatsu Octapus hook. I have yet to loose a fish on this setup, except last Monday, I hooked a large fish and it snapped the plug in 2. I got the bill back but that was all. Is there any pros or cons about using Gamakatsu Octapus hooks versus their Siwash hooks? Just curious.
